In 1990, Madonna was looking for Vogue-dancers to join her controversial ‘Blonde Ambition Tour’. The seven chosen young male dancers: Salim, Kevin, Carlton, José, Luis, Gabriel and Oliver, were catapulted to fame. They soon discovered that they became role models within the gay community, although they didn't always feel like it. After a falling out over the outing of Gabriel in the documentary ‘Truth Or Dare’, through a gay kiss, the group went their separate ways to pursue their professional careers. Now, 25 years later, Strike A Pose reunites the surviving dancers for the first time, airing long-buried secrets. Moving, captivating and told from the heart, Strike A Pose garnered a 25-minute standing ovation at its Berlinale World Premiere.
